This is still a problem as of rsync 2.6.9. I cannot specify an IPv6 literal,
eg:
rsync /test [fe80::1]:/test

Please reopen.

This works just fine for me using rsync 2.6.9 and ssh:

rsync -avv '[::1]':src /dest

(My shell requires the quotes to avoid an error about the wild-cards not
matching anything.)

Use double-verbose to see what remote-shell command rsync is executing, and
then diagnose why that doesn't work for you.

ok, it seems to only happen if I specify a username:

luke-jr@yokochan ~ $ rsync test luke-jr@'[::1]':/tmp
rsync: getaddrinfo: [ 873: Name or service not known
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(104) [sender=2.6.9]

Rsync currently requires the name to be inside the brackets:

rsync test '[luke-jr@::1]':/tmp

(Some shells don't require the quotes.)

I'll look into changing that for 3.0.0.

That works, if odd syntax. It would be nice if I didn't need brackets too:
rsync test luke-jr@::1:/tmp
